From Siloed to Sustainable

How the Connected Campus Builds Value and Agility

By: Carolyn Cirillo, Knoll, Inc. | Elliot Felix, Brightspot Strategy | Sanjit Sethi, Minneapolis College of Art and Design | Genny Beemyn, University of Massachusetts, Amherst

In this session, you'll learn how to combine digital and physical environments, promote diversity and inclusion, and implement flexibility within campus spaces to prepare your institution for a more blended world.
Abstract: Campus spaces and what they offer play a vital role in student success. By making organizational and operational changes, these spaces can better respond to transformational shifts in higher education. In order to build long-term value and agility in physical campus space, we must connect academia with industry, teaching with research, student affairs with academic affairs, online with on-campus experiences, and capital with operational planning. In this session, you'll learn how to combine digital and physical environments, promote diversity and inclusion, and implement flexibility within campus spaces to prepare your institution for a more blended world.
